Meghan Markle brushes off Jessica Mulroney memoir rumors as she shares sweetest moments photo

Meghan Markle appeared unfazed by rumors that Jessica Mulroney has been offered more than $1 million to publish a tell-all memoir, as the Duchess of Sussex carried on with her brand’s duties. On Wednesday, Markle posted a new image to her brand’s Instagram account showing her two dogs at her Montecito home, wearing a bright yellow maxi dress with billowing sleeves. The shot captures her looking away from the camera toward two palm trees that Markle has cited as symbolic of her and Prince Harry’s early years in California.

The accompanying post spoke to moments of calm and warmth, describing a scene of “crisp air, blue skies, and the sweetest moments.” In a 2022 interview with The Cut, Markle described the two palm trees that stand at the center of her Montecito lawn as a touchstone for the couple’s story, saying that her husband first noticed them and that their significance grows as their family, including their son Archie, has grown.

Meanwhile, the rumor mill has been active around a potential memoir from Mulroney. The Daily Mail cited reports that Mulroney was offered an advance “in excess of $1million” to recount her relationship with Markle and the years they spent as close friends. Mulroney has publicly said she would never reveal their private dynamics and declined to comment further, though a source linked to her camp suggested she could still be weighing a memoir’s timing. One insider noted that Meghan’s profile remains influential in Canada and that Mulroney might be waiting for the right moment, given the complex public dynamics at play.

The two women were once inseparable after meeting in Toronto during Markle’s early days on Suits. Mulroney was said to have helped guard a secret—Meghan’s relationship with a prince—and she was among the first friends Markle called from Kensington Palace when Harry proposed. Their families were intimately connected: Meghan’s twin bridesmaids and pageboys included Mulroney’s own children, underscoring the depth of their bond at a pivotal moment in Markle’s life.

Public recollections of the friendship have grown complicated in recent years. Mulroney faced intense scrutiny during a viral online incident tied to the Black Lives Matter movement, which critics linked to a broader question of “white privilege.” The fallout effectively sidelined her from several charitable and social circles in Canada. In the wake of that turmoil, Meghan’s circle and public image remained prominent, while Mulroney’s own professional visibility diminished. A number of insiders have suggested that Meghan remains a powerful figure with wide-reaching connections, and that Jessica Mulroney’s decision about whether to speak publicly—let alone publish a memoir—could hinge on how the Sussexes’ continued visibility shapes public perception.

There has been no official confirmation of any memoir project, and no comment from Meghan or her representatives. As entertainment and culture coverage continues to watch the back-and-forth, the narrative remains mostly speculative, with the primary, verifiable detail continuing to be Markle’s ongoing public appearances, brand activity, and personal moments shared with her followers.
